It is a good idea to test the ClassRoom before your first lesson by visiting our Demo Classroom.

Lessons

Can I have a trial lesson?

This depends on the personal preference of the tutor. Some tutors are happy to do this, some are willing to offer a discount rate for the first lesson, and some do not offer free trials, so you will need to message the tutors directly and ask them.

How do I schedule a lesson?

You can message your tutor and ask them to schedule the lesson or you can schedule the lesson yourself as below.

1. After you have created and added hours to your Classroom, go to the Classroom Page.

You can reschedule a lesson up to 24 hours before the lesson time. You do not need to pay anything to reschedule a lesson.
To reschedule, go the Upcoming Lessons section on your Classroom Page
